Anees Bazmi directorial Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, starring Kartik Aaryan, Kiara Advani, Tabu and Rajpal Yadav, has crossed the Rs 150 crore mark at the box office. The horror comedy earned Rs 4.55 crore and Rs 5.71 crore on Saturday and Sunday, respectively, taking the total collection to Rs 154.82 crore, reports The Indian Express.
On Sunday, Kartik Aaryan had reacted to the film’s success at the box office with a rather witty post. Resharing trade analyst Taran Adarsh’s post that the film is set to cross the Rs 150 crore mark, the actor wrote, “Kal 150 crore vaali smile sochni padegi. Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 on fire (Have to think of Rs 150 crore smile).”
While his film continues to mint moolah, the actor is missing out on all the action as he recently tested positive for Covid-19. Sharing an old video of him dancing along with his fans in a theatre, Kartik wrote on Instagram, “Sunn ne mein aaya hai aaj shows housefull chal rahe hai Quarantaine nahi hota toh i would have been dancing with you guys again.”
